Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

"Looks like I need to deal with the rats outside first."

A hint of hatred flashed in Aquavit's eyes.

He glanced at Conan and Ai Haibara, made a knife shape with his hands, and with a slight force, knocked them unconscious.

After confirming that his two spoils were safe, Aquavit took out his pistol, released the safety, and gently turned the cellar door...

In an instant, the black Beretta stood straight against Aquavit's forehead.

Even though Aquavit was completely focused, he couldn't react at all.

Cold sweat broke out on his skin in an instant.

Forcing himself to remain calm, Aquavit slowly tried to raise his head.

Following the dark barrel of the gun, he saw a man dressed entirely in black, one hand holding a black umbrella, the other raising a pistol, his eyes radiating a chilling aura.

"Cherry!"

Aquavit's pupils dilated instantly, and he involuntarily shouted,

"what do you mean!"

"hehe,"

Lin Jiayou sneered.

That Akawavitt kid's pretty arrogant, let's teach him a lesson...

Lin Jiayou glanced coldly at Aquavit, then fired a shot with incredible speed...

boom--

clatter--

"what--"

Aquavit clutched his right hand, unable to help but cry out, and the pistol in his hand fell to the ground in pain.

Two seconds later

Aquavit forced himself to suppress the pain, gritted his teeth, and glared angrily at Lin Jiayou.

"What on earth do you want!"

"doing what?"

Lin Jiayou said calmly,

"you do not know?"

"Gin made it very clear before: if your operation is exposed this time, then don't blame us for cleaning house."

"Don't forget, I'm here to meet you..."

Meet me...

Aquavit felt a jolt in his heart.

Gin did say before that Cherry would be in charge of providing assistance at the Beika Hotel.

He hadn't seen Cherry all day, and with those two unexpected surprises, he'd completely forgotten about it.

But I never expected that 'rescue' meant this...

"Cherry, it's all done."

At that moment, a very rough voice with a thick Kansai accent came from the other side.

Aquavit looked toward the source of the sound and saw Tequila, dressed in a black suit, striding toward them.

"Tequila treated me to dinner today,"

Lin Jiayou explained to Aquavit in a calm manner,

"When he heard that you were supposed to be purged, he stopped by to take a look."

"Haha, Cherry is right,"

Tequila walked up to Aquavit, a cruel smile spreading across his狰狞 (zhengning - ferocious/hideous) face.

"Today I also want to see how a rat dies..."

mouse?!

Upon hearing this word, Aquavit's expression instantly changed.

He unconsciously raised his voice and shouted loudly.

"Tequila, Cherry, what do you two mean by this?!"

"Do you suspect I'm an undercover agent?!"

"Whether you're an undercover agent or not, you know it in your heart."

Lin Jiayou, expressionless, pulled a photograph from his pocket and placed it in front of Aquavit.

"Now, this is the first thing you need to explain."

"This is......"

Aquavit instinctively wanted to retort.

However, after he looked at the photo carefully, he was dumbfounded.

The photo clearly records the moment he fired the gun at the chandelier; his face is captured in crystal clarity...

"This, how is this possible..."

Aquavit muttered incredulously.

He had guessed that Conan, the shrunken high school detective, might have something on him, but he never expected that his actions would be captured on camera!

"Alright, Aquavit,"

Lin Jiayou pressed the barrel of the gun further against Aquavit's head.

Do you know why you died?

"Understood, then just wait patiently for it to be processed..."

"Etc., etc!"

The fear of death in Aquavit's heart overcame everything.

"Cherry, don't do it, don't do it."

He immediately raised his hands, shouting in terror.

"Look, the person in the photo is in disguise. That's not the real me. I haven't been exposed yet."

"hehe,"

Lin Jiayou let out another cold laugh, remaining silent as his icy gaze continued to fixate on Aquavit in front of him.

Seeing that Cherry didn't react, Aquavit continued to throw out his chips, which were the chips he had just won.

"Cherry, I've made a discovery! I've made a huge discovery!"

"Do you remember Shirley? You have no idea where she is now, or what she looks like!"

"If you kill me, you'll never find Sherry again!"

Seeing Aquavit's increasingly hysterical state, Lin Jiayou chuckled inwardly.

Indeed, I never imagined at first that one day Shirley would move into my house and do my housework every day...

However, all of this has nothing to do with you, Aquavit.

"Are you threatening me?"

Lin Jiayou's expression grew even colder, his icy gaze piercing straight into Aquavit's eyes as if it could freeze someone to death.

The adrenaline that had surged up in Aquavit was immediately suppressed by the biting cold.

He quickly waved his hand.

"No, no, that's not what I meant. I meant..."

boom--

The bullet flew out of the barrel and pierced Aquavit's heart.

He opened his mouth wide, as if he wanted to say something.

Aquavit simply couldn't understand why Cherry was completely uninterested and indifferent to Sherry's messages...

Lin Jiayou watched Aquavit's figure gradually fall, feeling neither joy nor sorrow.

He crouched down, leaned close to Aquavit's ear, and like those villains who die from talking too much, whispered a few more words of nonsense to his prize.

"Do you really think that the one inside is Sherry?"

"hehe......"

what? !

Aquavit's eyes widened.

How did he know that Cherry hadn't even gone into the cellar...?

Could it be that......

Aquavit struggled to twist his head, peering through the crack in the door into the cellar.

On the desktop there, his computer was still stuck on the same comparison screen, still running.

However, at this moment, everything above was red...

"I see......"

Aquavit murmured to himself, his pupils lost their light, and he slowly closed his eyes.
